Mitt Romney's budget would gut Medicare, Medicaid and assistance programs

Mitt Romney's budget would gut Medicare, Medicaid and assistance programs
"That's a budget proposal so severely conservative, it's more drastic that the Paul Ryan budget. Ryan's proposing just a measly $5 trillion in cuts over the next decade; Romney would require between $7 and 10 trillion, making Ryan look like a piker. It's also even more unsustainable for the nation than Ryan's plan. There would be essentially nothing left standing but the Pentagon, looking out for the next war. Meanwhile, the casualites of past ones—disabled vets—would be shit out of luck. No wonder Romney won't put this all down on paper."
